Searching For Mistakes In Document While Using Another Document As Reference

Feb 2, 2014

I am processing a fair few Invoices, which are being sent to me via e-mail as excel documents, very often they contain mistakes, a decent amount of mistakes. Usually the prices are wrong.

I keep track of every single entry on the invoice on my own document - Tracker, which I consider to be the superior/more correct document to the Invoice presented to me by my contractor.

Both of the documents have a reference number, which is a specific docket number, and horizontally, in the invoice, there is going to be a price for this docket. In my document, there is going to be a separate column for the total price.

Is it possible (I guess with VBA) to check for mistakes in the Invoice, but use the Tracker as a reference for this check.

Tracker has
columns
A - Name
B - Department
C - Date
D - Docket No.
C - Total price for the docket (calculation of E to Z)
E to Z - all smaller entries

Invoice has
columns
A - Date
B - Docket No.
C to E price for that docket, but it is spread, because departments are separated out, so each VAT account can be charged accordingly. I guess it is possible to do a separate column for the price, if it is easier to do a script that way.

Basically, I need to check if in the Invoice document, the price (C to E) for Docket No. (B) is the same as the price (C) for the Docket No. (D) in the Tracker.

I would like the wrong entries to be highlighted on the Invoice Document, so I can see straight away, that this needs attention.

Not always the price is wrong, sometimes the Docket No. is spelled incorrectly (Dyslexic contractor), hence the highlighting.

Manipulate Inputbox Text

Jun 3, 2009

I have a macro that takes input from the user and replaces certain text on several worksheets. One of the inputs is a username in the format of firstname.lastname. I need to manipulate this input such that the dot is removed and the first twelve characters only are used, all in upper case. e.g. Michael.Jackson would become MICHAELJACKS

I know how to use cells.replace to replace the text but I don't know how to use a formula to manipulate the inputbox text before I do the replace.

Match And Manipulate Data

Feb 9, 2010

I have some sample data in "Sheet1" and another sample data in "Sheet2".

The intended output is shown in "Sheet3".

For example: if "Student1" in Sheet1 match the data for "Student1" in Sheet2, then all the entries for "Student1" in Sheet2 will be copied to Sheet3 (ouput). The same thing goes to other students in the list (Sheet1).

Sheet1 (sample data):
Student1 | Student2 | Student3 | Student4 | Student5

Sheet2 (sample data):
Student2 | Student5 | Student3 | Student4 | Student1
Lesson1 | Lesson1 | Lesson11 | Lesson1 | Lesson1
Lesson8 | Lesson2 | Lesson2 | Lesson23 | Lesson10

Manipulate Code To Add New Directory

May 21, 2012

Here is the code:

Code:
Option Explicit
Option Compare Text 'for Case-Sensitive matching change Text to Binary
Sub List_Matches()
Dim sPattern As String, sPath As String, sJob As String
Dim sMainDir As String, sCommonSub As String
Dim c As Range, lRow As Long
Dim d As Range
Range("B:B").Clear
lRow = Cells(Rows.Count, "E").End(xlUp).Row
If lRow < 8 Then Exit Sub

[Code] ...........

The red is the part that I tried to manipulate to add the new directory, the problem I can see is that the new directory contains folders with the following name "WO#____" as i can see the # sign is probably throwing the program off because it can't open up the link to that folder in order to look for files. The program as it stands still works fine with looking up the first directory. I also know we had created a function to solve the sign problem for directory 1 file names. How can i use that function to directory 2.

Manipulate Text File Using VBA

Jul 15, 2006

I had a problem today where I had to make some changes to a couple of large text files (100mb+). It seems that the File System Object (Microsoft Scripting Runtime) can only read or write at any one time so I ended up writing this. It opens two text streams at once , one to read and one to write and creates a revised file. Not very exciting but I thought somebody might find it useful ...

Sub ChangeTextFile()
' Manipulating a text file with VBA
' Loops through text file and creates revised one
' This code requires a reference (Tools > References) to Microsoft Scripting Runtime
Dim FSO As FileSystemObject
Dim FSOFile As TextStream, FSOFileRevised As TextStream
Dim FilePath As String, FilePathRevised As String
FilePath = "c: est.txt" ' create a test.txt file or change this
' adds "_Revised" to your file name
FilePathRevised = Left(FilePath, Len(FilePath) - 4) & "_Revised" & Right(FilePath, 4)........................

Manipulate Pivotfield Without Names

May 2, 2007

Range("B5").Select
With ActiveSheet. PivotTables("mypivot).PivotFields("team")
.Orientation = xlRowField
.Position = 2

This will move the data row field called "team" to be the second from the left. I would like a way to move whatever (without mentioning the field's name) field is in position 2 to position 3. Similar to an "offset" to the right.

Manipulate Current & Last Values Of A Cell

Mar 8, 2009

In Cell B1 I'm trying manipulate (either sum or find the difference for) the current and most recent prior values of Cell A1. The value in Cell A1 changes frecuently because it gets its values from a DDE link.

How do I :

1. Display in Cell B1 the current change in value of Cell A1 ?
2. Display in Cell C1 the sum of changes which have taken place in Cell B1 ?
3. Ideally I'd like to also be able to manually reset the value of Cell C1 to zero at any time.

I think this is a macro, or array, or pivot table thing, and is probably simple, but all of that is well beyond my current skill level.

Macro To Manipulate Article Sentences

Oct 9, 2009

I'm trying to write a macro that will take 5 articles that I have written and separate the sentences out....

So what I need to happen is I take the articles and pop them into excel, then the macro will pick the first sentence of the first article, then the first sentence of the second article, then the first sentence of the third article....and basically repeat this for all the sentences in all the articles also while adding a "|" in between the sentences and adding a starting "{" and an ending "}" for each of the first sentences, second sentences and so on.....

I don't know that I'm making any sence here so here is a very small example of what I need to happen....

Article 1 Paragraph 1: I like blue. I like Green. I like Purple.
Article 1 Paragraph 2: I like flowers. I like dasies. I like tulips.

Article 2 Paragraph 1: I like football. I like basketball. I like soccer.
Article 2 Paragraph 2: I like food. I like wine. I like beer.

Article 3 Paragraph 1: The sky is blue. The sky is dark. The sky is night.
Article 3 Paragraph 2: I love stars. The moon is big. The moon is full.

So each of articles would need to be placed in separate sheets I'm guessing?

Below is what I need the text to look like when the macro has finished.....

Spun Article Paragraph 1:

{I like blue.|I like football.|The sky is blue.}{I like Green.|I like basketball.|The sky is dark.}{I like Purple.|I like soccer.|The sky is night.}

Spun Article Paragraph 2:

{I like flowers.|I like food.|I love stars.}{I like dasies.|I like wine.|The moon is big.}{I like tulips.|I like beer.|The moon is full.}

I hope this all makes sense.....

I already set this up using the record macro feature of excel and it works ok but I end up having to do a lot of editing because it will put to many brackets in or not enough so I was hoping for some advise or possibly some code example that could get me headed in the right direction....

Import And Then Manipulate Data From Another File Automatically

May 6, 2009

I am working on a file that is going to import and then manipulate data from another excel file automatically. I would like this to be as smooth as possible and I am running into a problem. The file I am importing the data from is password protected, so I am opening it in read-only. Also, the file contains links to other excel files.

What I would like to do is indicate in the code to open the file in read-only format so that the user doesn't get a message box asking for the password. Also, is there a way to suppress the message box about updating the links? I have tried application.displayalerts = false but that didn't solve my problem.

VBA To Manipulate Pivot Table Report Filter

May 28, 2009

I have a pivot table created from a data table with three columns: Date, Sales, and Customers. I have the Date column in the Report Filter and I want to change the date based upon a value in a cell range named Date, of all things. The pivot table is located in another worksheet and the range Date is changed by a spin button in the active worksheet.

My code is:

Dim pt As PivotTable
Set pt = Worksheets("Pivot Tables").PivotTables("PivotTable1")

pt.PivotFields("Date").ClearAllFilters
pt.PivotFields("Date").CurrentPage = Range("Date")

Manipulate Web Page Controls To Retrieve Data

Jul 19, 2007

I retrieve data about local reservoirs (elevation, precipitation, gated release, ...) from a web site [url]. Retrieving the reports requires manipulating three drop boxes ("Select lake", "Year", "Data Type"). After that, I copy the data to the clipboard, and, back in Excel, push a button that pastes the text and extracts the data.

I'd like to programmatically manipulate those controls so that data retrieval can be completely automated.

Manipulate Values & Formatting In Closed Workbook

Mar 22, 2008

I have 2 workbooks, one containing all my code and userforms and another containing all my data (which is continuously updated/ dynamic). I want to be able to manipulate the data without ever opening the workbook (at the moment I use the open workbook method, but it is extremely slow). I have found some code (Jwalk) which I think meets my needs (and is instant). I have adapted this so it points to a specific path rather than the active path as below etc. but I need to adapt it further so that:

1. When the data is opened it is formatted exactly the same as it is in the original sheet which includes any coloured cells, bold fonts, cell width, height and so on

2. Any changes I make can be saved back to the original sheet in the closed workbook.

3. The data always opens in a named specific worksheet i.e. "TempSheet" which sits in the workbook containing the code (my code is called from a userform within this workbook).

The code I am using from Jwalk is as follows:

Sub GetDataDemo()

Dim FilePath$, Row&, Column&, Address$

'change constants & FilePath below to suit
'***************************************
Const FileName$ = "Book1.xls"
Const SheetName$ = "Sheet1"
Const NumRows& = 10
Const NumColumns& = 10
FilePath = ActiveWorkbook.Path & ""
'***************************************

I am still learning VBA and can adapt/write small pieces of simple code, I have tried incorporating the paste special method, but in all honesty, don't know what I am doing and it results in lots of errors. Can anyone help me get this working/point me in the right direction? Also, what does 'Const' do? how do I bring in the data without specifying the number of rows, as this will be different every time?

Notepad To Excel

Jan 23, 2010

I am wondering how would one go about turning a notepad file into an excel file without all the data being lumped into one cell?

for example the following notepad file is in this format:

20060102 190100;139.14;139.2;139.14;139.15;14
20060102 190200;139.19;139.19;139.16;139.18;16
20060102 190300;139.19;139.2;139.17;139.17;16
20060102 190400;139.16;139.24;139.16;139.2;22
20060102 190500;139.19;139.22;139.19;139.21;7

and I would like it in an excel file in the same format but with each group of digits seperated by a cell:

so for example my first line......

20060102 190100;139.14;139.2;139.14;139.15;14

I would like 20060102 in its own cell, followed by 190100 in its own cell, followed by
;139.14, followed by ;139.15, followed by ;14

Export Value To Notepad Using FSO

Jun 1, 2009

Basically what it do is it'll extract the value in D2 and use it to saved as the .txt file name.

But I'm wondering if it's possible to write a addition code to extract the value in F2 to Part1 and G2 to Part2.

For short which means Column D is the file name but which file have 2 parts. First is store in F2 and the second part is in G2. I know it's something got to do with "ts.Write ActiveCell.Offset(, 1).Text"

Sub Export_To_TextFile()
Range("D2").Select
Do While Not ActiveCell = ""
Set fso = CreateObject("Scripting.Filesystemobject")
Set ts = fso.CreateTextFile("C:Documents and SettingschanyoDesktopUpload" & ActiveCell.Value & "_Part1", True)

Set ts = fso.CreateTextFile("C:Documents and SettingschanyoDesktopUpload" & ActiveCell.Value & "_Part2", True)


ts.Write ActiveCell.Offset(, 1).Text
Set fso = Nothing
Set ts = Nothing

Manipulate Date Ranges For Monthly And Quarterly Reports

Feb 4, 2009

I am currently trying to manipulate date ranges for monthly and quarterly reports, and am having trouble doing this. I have attached a file with an example of what I would essentially need.

I would need the "Nbr of Projects", "Nbr of Days worked", "Nbr of International Projects" and "Nbr of Local Projects" cells filled in under each respective report, based on the data in the top left.

If a project falls in two months, such as "18.12.2008 to 15.01.2009", this would be treated as 1 project for December and 1 project for January. Also, I would need only "NETWORKDAYS" included in the solution, so 11 days in this example.

Manipulate Chart Data Labels Height, Width....

May 2, 2008

I m working with bar charts and as I've heard these labels can be a bit of a pain. I've got the labels in roughly the right position 90% of the time however that other 10% has me in rolling fits.

My issues
1. A label within the chart area is wrapped on two lines, how could I restrict Excel from wrappign the label
2. A Labels position covers some of the data reported and thus makes the graph messy

how could I find the position of the end of the bar and also the length of the datalabel so I could reposition it. Note I am using 2003 and that I am trying to use

activeChart.seriesCollection(s).item(i).Datalabel.left

for finding the position although this is only really where im getting to. finding the wrapping position and also being able to manipulate the length of the label is proving tricky.
